One of the most cheering things about the progress of the South is the growing tenden- ey toward more diversified agriculture. This year the corn crop will be 50,000, ,00O bushels larger than that of last year and 100, ,000, 900 bushels larger than that of 1884. This will render the South nearly indepen- dent of the West for it's supply of corn.
 Hope springs eternal in the human breast, and especially in the consumptive human breast. It was announced some time ago that consumption could be cured by intro ducing sulphureted hydrogen into the lungs, and gaseous enemata were tried on patients both of Bellevue and the New York hos pitals. The remedy is failure. For 8 week after using it the patients seemed to improve; but that was the result of their hope and belief-a sort of faith cure. In & short time they were as sick as ever.
 oil is to be used in the place of coal at the Chicago pumping works. A jet of super heated steam is thrown into the furnace with the oil, and the combustion is so perfect that very little smoke escapes, while an intense and regular heat is produced. It is estimated that the city will save thirty per cent. in the 1 cost of fuel by the substitution of oil for coal. To guard against the machinations of the Standard Oil company, the furnaces are arranged so that they can be changed in | twenty minutes to burn coal, in case "cor- | ner" is run up on oil.

Congress, in the act entitled IAN act to

tions IN connection with colleges" etc.,
made an appropriation to carry 1t into eff.
tect. The question was referred TO the
First Comptroller, and he has given an
opinion that an appropriation. if made at
all, is provided tor in section of said
act, and ne gives his opinion that Con.
gress only intended by the expression
"the sum OF $3.50 per annum Is hereby
appropriated to each state" to fix the
amount that could be specially provided
for by Congress in appropriations from
year to year, and hence that section
does not make an appropriation, but that
the amount must be specially provided
